#FORESIGHT MANAGEMENT UPDATE#
Their Technology Quarterly offers an excellent quarterly update on emerging technology. Or this one-page article on top strategies to improve our schools. For examples, see this great one-page article (registration required to view) on the future of artificial intelligence.
In their Leaderssection at the front, they offer great one-page summaries of their best articles. These scenarios are a nice mix of both protopian(eg, AI-produced laws) and dystopian(eg., Trump getting elected) futures. Starting in 2015, every July, they began publishing a companion supplement, The World If, a collection of well-written scenarios, what could happen in the future, given certain assumptions. They also review their previous year’s forecasts in each new issue, holding themselves accountable to past forecasts. The Economist’s annual The World in 20XX, produced every November since 1986, is an excellent special issue that forecaststhe coming year. They also offer an audio version of their print magazine (free with subscription), great for commutes, exercise, and multitasking, roughly 8-9 hours per issue, chaptered so you can skip to your topic of interest.
#FORESIGHT MANAGEMENT TRIAL#
Consider a trial subscription, and give it just two hours, one evening a week, to skim all the punny headlines, then read and socially share (Twitter, FB, whatever) your favorite article or two, and you’ll become a better skimmer, reader, thinker, speaker, and writer. The Economist’s politics are generally socially liberal, fiscally conservative, and they are very evidence-based in their reporting. The Economist is presently the best general and global foresight weekly on the planet by a good margin, in my opinion.
To improve acceleration awareness, there is also a slight emphasis on technology foresight in the magazines. We’ve also mixed in some magazines on functional foresight topics. The following thirty titles are particularly commendable global and organizational foresight periodicals, across a variety of sectors and specialties. We’ve focused this list on strategic foresight with business and institutional applications.
